Company Mission

Wicked Sister Dance Theater was born out of the 8 year collaboration of artistic director David DeBlieck and Austin, TX-based artistic associate Caroline Sutton Clark as a means to present engaging and thought-provoking choreography that fuses elements of Japanese butoh, aerial arts, modern dance and rich theatricality. With the support of the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council and Red Eye Theater, Wicked Sister presented our first production, Summer Splash, in June, 2003. The production featured aerial and butoh-inspired choreography with 13 dancers, 2 teacups, a 30 foot rope and 8 ½ dozen raw eggs.

Since 2003, WSDT has focused our artistic energies on training performers in the aerial arts and creating new choreography on conventional aerial apparatus as well as originally designed structures. The company has also fostered collaborative relationships as part of the choreographic process, including essential involvement of dancers/performers and creative merging with designers, directors and artists from various physical arts. The recent addition of designer Jeffrey Bleam as artistic associate has expanded our attention to visual landscapes. In 2003-04, new works were presented at Intermedia Arts, Xelias Aerial Studio, Patrick’s Cabaret, the Hopkins Center for the Arts, Red Eye Theater and with our sister company, Wicked Cricket Dance Theatre in Austin, TX.
